    There are definitely some subtle things going on in this boot that you probably didn’t even notice. Did you see the red stitching at the top of the boot and at the pull straps? The contrast between the supple black of cowhide and ostrich leather is absolutely amazing without being pushy! These boots have just the right amount of flare in all the right places. Between the full quill ostrich vamps and the subtle red stitching up top, everything combines to make one beautiful pair of ostrich skin boots. I don’t even think I should mention the crown stitching on the pull straps and overlays. I don’t think you will be able to handle it!

  • Buffalo Boots Men – American Buffalo Lives In These Boots

    Buffalo Boots Men – American Buffalo Lives In These Boots

    Hey everyone, Tom here, and I wanted to talk to you about just one gorgeous boot in this article. Buffalo boots men as a lot of people search for it online or men’s buffalo leather boots so to speak. This isn’t so much a review and I’m not gonna pepper the article with five or six different boots. I just wanted to talk about one boot by Lucchese, the world renowned handcrafted boot maker.

    There are a couple reasons I picked this one boot. First of all, its 100% exactly what I’m looking for in a boot when it comes to looks. It is definitely the style I go for. Not to flashy but at the same time, its absolutely exquisite in detail when it comes to color, stitching, and I even love the roper toe.

    Price: $750
    Handmade:     Yes
    Skin: Baby Buffalo
    Color: Whiskey
    Details: Stitched Toe Bug on Vamp, Stitched Designs on Pulls and Shaft
    Toe type: Roper

    Outsole: Leather
    Insole: Leather
    Heel height: 1″
    Shaft Height: 12″
    Manufactured: El Paso, Texas

    Another thing I love is that its made from baby buffalo leather, something you don’t find very often.

    And last but not least, This is one of the most popular boots that have been purchased over at Pinto Ranch. Out of all the Lucchese boots offered there, this has the most reviews and they are all five stars. People can’t say enough about them and I wanted you to get a little taste of what they are saying, but I will get to that in a bit.

    Let’s Talk About The Boot Itself

    These baby buffalo ropers are absolutely stunning to the eye and have a beautiful whiskey color that is perfectly burnished consistently throughout the entire boot. It’s also super soft to the touch just like your favorite ring-spun cotton t-shirt. It also stands out because it has a 12-inch shaft where most ropers have a 10 inch shaft.

    This stitching is subtle, but also pretty artistic at the same time. It has great flow and really doesn’t stick out that much and steal all the attention from the beautiful burnished whiskey color that I mentioned above. Oh, I forgot to mention, you can get them in black also!

    What’s All This Talk About Lucchese?

    First off, let me start off by saying that Lucchese has been making handcrafted cowboy boots in El Paso, Texas since 1883. You can read about them here if you would like: Lucchese Cowboy Boots

    Check out our Lucchese boot review!

    That will definitely give you a brief rundown on the History of these historic boot makers and will give you an appreciation for the amazing boots they make. Tradition, quality, attention to detail and just plain kick butt craftsmanship goes into every pair of cowboy boots that they make. That’s why they have been worn by presidents, movie stars and of course Arnold Schwarzenegger has a huge collection of Lucchese boots.

    What Are People Saying About Lucchese Buffalo Boots?

    I just wanted to add a couple of the reviews here that you can easily find over at the Pinto website. These boots are basically the “cat’s meow”. Not a single bad word about them.

    One of the most beautiful ropers I’ve ever seen in my life : Review by David on 8 May 2018

    One of the most beautiful ropers I’ve ever seen in my life. Went to visit the good folks at the Houston store. Tried several Lucchese ropers and was undecided about the style and color… until this baby was presented to me. I got the pair without hesitation. It is one gorgeous boot. Very happy with the purchase.

    Wonderful products, even better service Review by M F. on 7 Mar 2018

    Wonderful products, even better service recently ordered 2 beautiful pairs of Lucchese boots – thought one of them would put my 3 month search to an end. When they arrived they were even more beautiful in person, but unfortunately neither pair fit as I’d hoped. A quick call to Pinto Ranch procured a return label – no questions asked – but it sure was hard to let go of the boots! The search continues– hopefully it will end at Pinto Ranch, as it should. They are truly wonderful to do business with and I’d be proud to wear the PR experience.

    This is just a couple of the reviews and even though one of them didn’t get a good fit, as you will find out, Pinto takes care of you if there is a problem. There are a lot more reviews over there and they all say the same thing. Beautiful boot and a wonderful shopping experience!

    Shopping For Boots Online Pros And Cons

    If you are familiar with any of our articles about buying boots at Pinto, you have probably already seen what we have said about that. For one thing, there really isn’t a “con” to speak of. I mean yeah, maybe you don’t know if you are gonna get the right fit because you’ve never tried on a pair of cowboy boots and you just aren’t sure. Trust me, I feel ya. But it won’t cost you any money if that’s the case. They will take back any returns or exchanges and they will foot the bill for the shipping. If its a tad bit too small, they will send you the return label free of charge and send you a larger size or completely refund your money. You get to do this all from the comfort of your home or wherever you might be at the time. It’s a win win situation and I don’t know of a better deal anywhere.

    What Are You Waiting For?

    Seriously, what? You should have clicked on one of the above images and headed over there to look at this boot a little more closely. They are made from the best materials out there and of course Lucchese quality is second to none.

    Another great thing about this boot is its dressy enough for a night out on the town, but also looks amazing in jeans. This is my go to boot and probably my favorite boot of all time.

    If you got any more questions about this beautiful baby buffalo boot or any other boot for that matter, give me a shout below and I’ll be more than happy to get back to ya.

  • Tony Lama Cowboy Boots

    Tony Lama Cowboy Boots

    The other day I did an article on Lucchese cowboy boots. I wanted to give you, the boot connoisseur so to speak, a little info on who actually makes the boots you own or are thinking of owning. I learned a lot while looking into their history and thought it would be a good idea to do articles on the 5 brands of boots we talk about the most here at We Heart. So today I decided to write about another super popular brand and that is Tony Lama Cowboy Boots.

    Well let me tell you something, it was a difficult task at first. I really confused myself when doing some research on Tony Lama. I actually got a little confused and thought that the article I did on Lucchese was actually the wrong info and I somehow got information on Tony Lama. I had to do a double take on several occasions and re look up Lucchese’s info and Tony Lamas to make sure I got it right.

    Why was it confusing? Well for one thing, they are both Italian immigrants. That was the main thing that kind of threw me for a loop. The difference being Lucchese was born in Italy and I believe Tony was born in New York. I couldn’t find any info that states that directly. Tony Lama started as shoemaker’s apprentice at the age of 11. I don’t really think that would fly in today’s world lol! He joined the U.S. Calvary as a cobbler for the soldiers stationed at Fort Bliss, Texas and when he was through with his service, he stayed in El Paso. He opened a small cobbler shop and repairs were his main business, but his handmade boots soon became popular and in his first year he sold 20 pairs of what was to become Tony Lama’s handcrafted boots.

    Who Wants These Boots?

    After a few years of making boots for his customers in El Paso, the word had hit the streets. Stores that specialized in western wear started asking Tony for his boots to sell in their stores. Because of the demand, Tony developed methods to be able to produce his handmade boots more quickly and in greater quantities to meet this demand.

    It also didn’t hurt that Tony had six children and they all actively got involved in making these now famous cowboy boots and by the 1950s Tony Lama boots were being marketed nationally

    In 1946, a custom pair of Tony Lama boots was presented to president Harry S. Truman. The boots were inlaid with gold and silver and were absolutely gorgeous. If you read the article I did on Lucchese boots, you will remember that President Lyndon B. Johnson was a fan of their boots. Hey, if a president is wearing them, they must be great boots!

    Why Get A Pair Of Tony Lama Boots?

    Me being Italian, I know there are three things they are famous for. Well there are more than three, but my top 3 that come to mind is cars, food, and footwear. When it comes to boots, that has kind of been proven by Lucchese and Tony Lama. The proof of the pudding is in the eating as they say.

    Fifty years after the first store opened, it’s now 1961 and the company moved to a much larger operation producing around 750 pairs of boots a day. They were eventually sold to Justin industries and if you wear any kind of western style clothing, you definitely know that name. Justin might own Tony Lama, but they have kept the same tradition in boot making that Tony started back in El Paso. If you want a top quality pair of boots that are handcrafted with exquisite attention to detail, you can’t go wrong with Tony Lama.

    Tony Lama Cowboy Boots - Tony Lama Advertising Poster

    Okay, Let’s Talk About Pricing

    Once again my favorite place for cowboy or cowgirl boots and western wear is Pinto Ranch. I found 27 pairs of men’s Tony Lama boots and 12 pairs for women. The cheapest men’s boot was $371 and the cheapest women’s boot was $399. The most expensive boot was almost $1,500 for men and right at a $1,000 for women.

    You are definitely getting what you pay for. These boots will last for years. These are top quality boots and come in a bunch of different styles, leathers, and colors. Sporting a pair of these around will most likely get you noticed. Top quality items usually do. You can get these boots for the ladies made from cowhide, lizard, Nile crocodile, and ostrich. For the guys, you can get the same and even a pair in kangaroo, goat, and even made from caiman. All the leathers are the finest quality and made in the same tradition as fine Italian craftsmanship in footwear that Tony Lama is famous for.

    Where Can I Get A Pair

    My best recommendation to get a pair of these beautiful boots is always Pinto Ranch. Why is that you ask? Well for one thing, they only carry the best. Also, they offer the best in not only Tony Lama, but other brands as well, so you just might find something you like better in say Lucchese, BlackJack, Stallion, or another top quality boot maker.

    Tony Lama Cowboy Boots - Handmade Cowboy Boots at Pinto Ranch

    Also, they offer more than just boots. They have a huge selection of western wear ranging from belts, cowboy hats, western style jeans, shirts, and other types of clothing. Heck, they even have a saddle shop where they make their own handmade leather saddles on a daily basis.

    If you’ve read any of our other articles, you know their return / exchange policy is second to none! You can return a pair of boots if they don’t fit correctly or decide to get a different pair free of charge. They will even pay the shipping, so that is one last thing you have to think about. According to Pinto Ranch, their first priority is your happiness with the pair of boots you choose. They want to make sure you have the correct fit and are 100% happy with the boots you choose

    Another boot style that deserves a good look at is the Arlow. It features An Elegant golden Chestnut leather upper with orange and yellow stitching. It’s mahogany caiman narrow round toe foot shows a well-polished finish. With this boot style and all other Tony Lama Boot styles, it also features the Lama Comfort Technology insoles which offer support and comfort. A single stitch welt around the leather out sole adds durability and extends the life of this boot.

    Check out our Review of Tony Lama Boots!

    Let’s get into the last style of the Boots that I want to talk about that jumped out at me when I saw it. It doesn’t have wings but it’s design and style will make you soar. It’s none other than the Griffon. When my eyes met this glorious display of craftsmanship, I knew I had to add it to the list. The Griffon has a distressed golden brown leather exterior accented by a multi-color stitching. A smooth ostrich square toe foot has added texturing for that lived-in feel. However, none of this would be complete without the Lama Comfort Technology insole. It’s double stitched welt adds durability and the rubber out sole provides both oil and slip-resistance. It also features a horseshoe pattern that adds traction to each step.

    Cowgirls, Rejoice!

    Something would surely be amiss if I neglected to mention my lovely rodeo vixens. You need a boot that can handle your stride as well, right? No worries, Tony Lama has a collection of styles that will knock you off your feet (hopefully into a pair of Tony Lama Cowboy Boots *wink). Of course there are plenty that I could mention, but there are two beauties that grabbed my eyes and clutched my beating heart.

    Magnolia Rose: Yes ma’am, the Magnolia Rose! Now, I’m a sucker for a beautiful woman wearing some sexy boots, but a beautiful woman sporting my favorite color (red), now that would just give me a heart attack and send me to an early grave. This 16-in tall heel features of plum leather, with a fashionable pink, white, and purple stitching. The golden brown foot sports a square receipt toe and the scalloped collar as flair and style to this blooming Magnolia. A Buckaroo spur heel allows for an easy fit. The orthotic insoles provide comfort and support for the would-be Rodeo Fashionista.

    There You Have It

    I would say these aren’t your grandparents pair of boots, but they very well could be. Tony Lama’s style and tradition lives on in every pair of boots that Tony Lama makes today. If you’ve never had a pair of cowboy boots or even if you own a closet full of them, it’s definitely worth your while to check out a pair of these works of art.

    Hey, as I said, presidents have worn these boots and there is good reason. Only the best for the commander in chief. With over a 100 years of boot making experience, Tony Lama puts that knowledge and skill not to mention attention to detail in every pair of women’s and men’s boots they make. You won’t be disappointed!

    As always, if you have any comments or questions about Tony Lama or any type of handmade boot, go ahead and leave us a comment below.

  • Ostrich Cowboy Boots For Men

    Ostrich Cowboy Boots For Men

    I wanted to take the time out and do the next series of posts on our favorite boots from each brand by leather type. In this post, we will be talking about our favorite ostrich cowboy boots for men by five different boot makers available at Pinto Ranch. I may add or subtract from this list due to popularity.  I will add or subtract different boots as needed.

    Ostrich Cowboy Boots Men - Ted Cruz and Lyle Lovett Love their Ostrich Cowboy Boots

    As you may already know, ostrich cowboy boots are super popular and often have a distinctive look because of those little bumps on the leather from their quills. Ostrich leather is also one of the softest skins, if not the softest out of all the exotic leathers made into handmade cowboy boots. This was supposed to be my “Top 5 ostrich cowboy boots for men” but I’m about to add another pair that kind of slipped through the cracks.  I’m not gonna tell you exactly which pair I just added because it doesn’t really matter. If I find another great pair of ostrich boots, I will just add them to this article under the brand name as needed.  I have 5 great brand names that are all handmade listed here and it will be easy to add them as needed. The important thing is it’s here now and when it comes down to it, you be the judge on the pair you like the best. You can click on any of the images here and see those particular boots or from there you can easily navigate to a wide selection of ostrich boots or any other exotic leathers or basic cowboy boots made from calf, goat, etc… Just click a boot and check them out!

    BLACK JACK MEN’S BURNISHED CIGAR SMOOTH OSTRICH BOOTS

    This is my favorite ostrich skin boot from Black Jack boots. These boots are handmade in Texas that are durable, soft, and have a great classic look. The boots are two toned made with smooth ostrich skin with a burnished cigar look. The tops are goat mad dog goat skin and have a round toe and a super comfortable walking heel.

    Durability, Look, And Super Soft

    Another great thing about ostrich skin is it has the highest tensile strength when it comes to leathers used in making cowboy boots. Because of this, they can make it very thin which is also one of the reasons that it’s the softest of the cowboy boot leathers. It’s not unusual to see a person wearing a pair of these handmade boots all the time that are 20 years old. They can do this because they are so strong and durable that after a long time of wearing, they still look great!

    LUCCHESE MEN’S BLACK FULL-QUILL OSTRICH ROPER BOOTS

    This was a hard choice. I mean it seems like all Lucchese cowboy boots are awesome, but they all looked kind of similar with subtle differences here and there. I will say, there was one boot that reminded me of the ice king from Game Of Thrones. I don’t know why, but that is the first thing I thought of. If you want, head over to Pinto Ranch’s site and go to Lucchese ostrich skin boots and you will know right what I’m talking about when you see it.

    These boots are hand made in the unofficial cowboy boot capital of the world, El Paso, Texas. They have a full quill ostrich skin vamp and feature a hand calf leather shaft with some beautiful hand stitching on the front of the vamp.

    What Cut Ostrich Do You Like

    Full quill ostrich skin boots are probably the most preferred. That is where you can really see the bumps on the boot where they yanked out the feathers. Most of the time they are burnished or have some “antiquing” done to them that highlights or makes those bumps really stand out. This is what probably immediately comes to mind when you are thinking of ostrich skin boots.

    A LUCCHESE CLASSIC COWBOY BOOT IN BARNWOOD WITH THE RIGHT STUFF:
    FULL-QUILL OSTRICH, DETAILED STITCHING, A TRADITIONAL ROUND TOE AND WALKING HEEL.

    I hate to judge people, but if you can’t see the beauty in this handmade ostrich boot, something is wrong with you lol! This pair in particular had one of the the largest amount of reviews that I’ve seen a pair of cowboy boots have and they were all 5 stars. This is definitely a BEST SELLER when it comes to cowboy boots from Pinto Ranch and definitely stands on it’s own! The full-quill ostrich vamp and the dark tan ranch hand calf leather shaft combine for complementary contrast. The boot also has an ostrich inlay on the front of the shaft, a traditional round toe and a 1 3/8″ walking heel. You seriously need to click on the image above and check them out.  Read the reviews by the way.  “Excellent design and quality”, “Excellent boots, got exactly what I imagined”, “Beautiful boots”, etc….

    Smooth ostrich skin boots don’t have the quill bumps like the full quill boots. Full quill leather coming from the top or back of the ostrich with the big feathers, the smooth ostrich skin is coming from the side or the legs. Fewer feathers or smaller feathers. It makes the leather coming from there with smaller bumps or even smooth. It definitely doesn’t have that full quill look. It’s still soft, just doesn’t have that distinctive look as the full quill look and the price is usually considerably cheaper. Same great quality, just a different look and different price.

    You can also get a “Piece cut ostrich skin” boot which has a combination of some parts being full quill and some being smooth ostrich skin. These boots have a really different type of look and a real classic look. It’s been around for a long time and really distinctive as well.

    One last cut is the ostrich leg cut. You won’t see any quill bumps on this boot. The ostrich leg cut is always pieced because the ostrich legs aren’t big enough to cover a whole boot. This boot leather is usually pretty shiny and not as soft as the quill skin. This leather also isn’t as soft and usually used as a dress boot because it’s really shiny. Lots of people mistake ostrich leg cut boot to be reptilian or snake because it looks so different from the full quill or smooth ostrich.

    RIOS OF MERCEDES BRANDY AND MAD CAT RUST GOAT & FULL QUILL OSTRICH BOOTS

    Wow, that was a mouthful! I guess you can say the bigger the name, the bigger the boots lol! These boots are awesome. These full quill ostrich boots are handmade of course and the leather is a very bright brandy color that stands out against the darkened quills.

    STALLION MEN’S ZORRO ANTIQUE SADDLE FULL-QUILL OSTRICH ANKLE BOOTS

    Stallion also makes full quill ostrich cowboy boots, unfortunately there are only three to choose from. The good news is all three are pretty awesome and are 100% ostrich skin from the vamp to the 7″ shaft. If you’ve never worn a cowboy boot with a short shaft, you’ve really got to try it. I love them. The shortened shaft means you can wear them with any pair of pants. Jeans, dockers, whatever. I love all three but chose this pair because I’m kind of partial to brown cowboy boots. For some reason they just seem more casual to me.

    If you don’t know about Stallion boots, let me give you a quick rundown. They are pretty new by boot making standards. They started in 1980 which seems like a long time when you compare them to other industries, but not in handmade cowboy boot years. They are handmade by some of the best cowboy boot artisans in the USA. They are pretty well-known when it comes to boot fashion and have been featured on the runways of fashion shows in Paris, Milan, and New York. They also can be found on the feet of a lot of Hollywood personalities.

    TONY LAMA SIGNATURE SERIES MEN’S DARK NICOTINE NILE BELLY & OSTRICH ROPER BOOTS

    I have to begin with an apology here. There are 9 different ostrich skin cowboy boots offered by Tony Lama on Pinto’s site and I had to pick the most expensive. Some under $400 and a couple over a grand. I’m sorry, but these immediately made an impression on me.

    You had me at ostrich skin and Nile crocodile, then you throw in Ropers and I was sold. The vamps are a beautiful crocodile skin pattern with amazing color. The design is very neat and orderly with just a slight roughness around the edges. This is definitely the Cadillac of handmade cowboy boots!

  • Distressed Cowboy Boots

    Distressed Cowboy Boots

    We’ve written a lot of great articles on some amazing men’s cowboy boots. Literally the finest boots from makers like Lucchese, Tony Lama, Blackjack, etc… We have even written some articles on Rios Of Mercedes out of Mercedes Texas. Each and every one of their boots is handmade under one roof in south Texas. They’ve been around since 1853 and just one look at their boots and you can tell they know what they are doing.

    Video Of How to “Distress” Your Own Boots!

    But I have to say, one boot has definitely caught my eye. It’s the distressed Sahara suede vintage cowboy boot that I just absolutely fell in love with. Pretty much if you add the word “distressed” in front of anything, I automatically like it. From t-shirts, jeans, whatever, I’m just a big fan of the “distressed” look.

    Rios of Mercedes Distressed Sahara Suede Cowboy Boots

    When I was first scrolling through the Rios Of Mercedes boots section on Pinto’s website, I was pretty impressed with all their boots. Not really a bad boot in the whole bunch. Some I liked better than others, you know how it goes. I mean everyone has different tastes, that’s why you have to make a wide variety of boots. That pretty much goes for anything. T-shirts, jeans, etc… You get the point. But when I saw these distressed cowboy boots, that was like an “A-ha moment” for me. I literally could just wear these everywhere. The house, the mall, the bar, etc…

    You can check out a great review we did on Rios Of Mercedes boots right here and it will take you right to all of their boots for men and women.

    These Boots Come At A Great Price For The Quality

    These handmade cowboy boots are selling for under $500 by one of the premiere cowboy boot makers in Texas. The quality is second to none and these babies will last literally for decades. They are rugged as hell and can stand up to anything. I kind of like to call them the “beef jerky” of cowboy boots.

    Nothing Stands Up Like Cowhide

    Cowhide is synonymous when you think of the cowboy lifestyle. These boots are definitely what I picture in my head when I first think of cowboy boots.

    These distressed cowboy boots have a tan rough out style with an unfinished, raw leather tops that give them an authentic “trail hand” look that you would find out west. The great thing is that they have a cushioned insole and a hybrid out sole that provide comfort and durability that you couldn’t find back in the ole days of trail riding. They also sport a wide snip toe that I really love in a cowboy boot. That’s just my personal preference. I’m not really big on a pointy toe boot. And of course, as I said earlier, they are all handmade in Texas.

    OLD GRINGO WOMEN’S TALL BOOTS IN BRASS WITH FLORAL ACCENTS

    Ladies Cowgirls Boots Sale - Old Gringo Tall Boots In Brass With floral Accents

    Click BOOTS for more info and to PURCHASE!

    These boots are reminiscent of Americana icons, with their distinct cowgirl boot brass color and bone white floral embroidery. If these classic western cowgirl boots aren’t destined for the dance floor, then I don’t know what are. The classic cowgirl style of this boot is infused with contrasting, folksy floral embroidery and lace that frames the embroidery along the collar, heel foxing, and toe in the form of a wingtip. Style, charm never looked so good while at the same time, so comfortable. The pull straps flare out in diamond shapes and are also framed with lace. A beautiful look to finish off a classic look that I still can’t believe you can get them for this price. Definitely a boot in the ladies boot sale that is worth every penny!

Stallion boots use the finest python skin a boot maker can find. This is definitely a pair of boots that you will never forget!

    Reviews:

    Angela B. – 5 Stars – The pictures online don’t show the details of these boots. Online the leather looks black. The leather is as described/ green. The green metallic is just beautiful. The metallic is not over the top, it’s just enough. I guessed at my size and they fit well. I have desired slippage on the right boot. The left boot has a less desired slippage, it’s still comfortable. I wear a size 10 in shoes. I wear a 9.5 or 10 in a boot. I order a 9.5 in this boot.

    Kristie B. – 4 Stars – They fit great and look amazing! The problem I have with them is the gold metal band around them has falling off four times the first time I wore them. I had to take pliers to the round metal connectors to keep them together…if I lost them it would be very disappointing. So if you buy these reinforce the connectors on the metal band!

    Cowgirl Boots And Leggings – Another Great Idea

    The following are a few examples of how to wear cowboy boots with leggings. While these are a great place to start, this combination offers an endless supply of fashion fun!

    Women's Cowgirl Boots And Leggings

    1. Bohemian Western – Go boho with a bit of western flair! Start with your favorite pair of western leggings, try these Center Seam Ponte Leggings, and add a fringe, embroidered, or laser cut style poncho top with some classic women’s cowgirl boots like the Stallion Full-Quill Ostrich Boots. If you’re feeling extra boho, opt for these fold-down collar Yerba Boots from Freebird by Steven. Tie the look together with a western statement necklace like a super cool Squash Blossom necklace.

    2.Western Chic – At We Heart, we absolutely love the western chic style. Next time you’re looking for a date night outfit or something for that western-themed event, try one of these chic combinations. Pair them with some American made cowboy boots to complete the ensemble.

    Pair your favorite black western leggings – we love these riding pant style leggings by Isabel – with a long duster coat that makes a bold statement. Stack long coordinating necklaces in different materials over a solid top like the Vintage Collection Ballet Top to complete the look. Tip: Try sticking to a single color palette with your clothes and use your jewelry to add color.

    3. Classic Western – Don’t be afraid to go classic! I’ve listed some great items here that will make any girl smile! A fun Double D Ranch poncho over a denim western snap shirt with the Center Seam Ponte Leggings. For a pop of color and added western style, turquoise jewelry is always an eye catcher, like the Blue Turquoise Bolo Tie and Kingman Turquoise Cuff. Finish it off with some classic cowgirl boots as well. Rember, turquoise boots are all the rage in every classic look you can think of.

  • Columbia Men’s Hiking Boots

    Columbia Men’s Hiking Boots

    Okay, let’s get into some serious hiking boots. Columbia men’s hiking boots, that basically says it all when you think of outdoor footwear. Columbia sportswear was founded almost 80 years ago as a hat store. They have some great shoes and boots made for hiking. They are based in Oregon, and that is some rugged country, so you definitely need a good hiking boot or shoe if you like to venture outdoors.

    Columbia Men Hiking Boots - Columbia Outdoor Clothing Company

    Below, I have put together a number of great mens waterproof hiking boots made by Columbia footwear offered by eFootwear. I have gone ahead and picked hiking boots / shoes from several price ranges. Just remember, these aren’t the only mens hiking boots offered here. If you want, just select or click one of the boots and head on over the site and you can view all of them. There are a wide variety of boots and shoes ranging from $35 to over a $100. Also many different styles and colors to choose from. I also want to mention they offer sizes from 8 to 15, so they should have you covered there. If you are over size 15, I’m pretty sure they are looking for you on the Discovery channel, so you might want to keep a low profile.

    The Columbia Bugaboot III Mens Waterproof Hiking Boot

    Columbia Men Hiking Boots - Bugaboots

    Hold on, I didn’t pick this boot because of it’s name (even though I could sit here and say “Bugaboot” over and over again). This is kind of snow boot / hiking boot all in one. Perfect for hiking or anything outdoors. I’m basically calling this the “Jeep” of hiking boots. They are high cut boots that stand tall against anything mother nature can throw at it. Plenty of insulation that will keep your feet warm on those cold hikes or in the desert at night when it really gets cold!

    The Columbia Newton Ridge Plus II Men’s Hiking Boot

    Columbia Men Hiking Boots - Newton Ridge

    I love this Columbia mens waterproof boot for many reasons, but one is because of it’s color. It makes me think of some kind of work boot / hiking boot mix breed. This hiking boot is durable, lightweight with coated leather and built for everything you need in the outdoors (comfort, protection, and of course style)! Style might not be necessary everywhere, but you never know when you are gonna run into someone you want to impress. Who says you have to wear them just out hiking? These bad boys will look good anywhere.

    I do want to mention that this boot comes in a couple different colors for the same exact boot. The dark brown and black are about $20 more and I have no idea why. It’s basically the same hiking boot with the same serial numbers. Must have something to do with the material used.

    They feature a waterproof seam-sealed construction. These men’s waterproof hiking boot won’t let rain, much, and puddles ruin your outdoor fun.

    The Columbia Men’s Hiking Shoe Cordovan

    Columbia Men Hiking Boots - Cordovan

    Wow, this hiking shoe almost looks like a pair of Asics that I have! I’m pretty sure you could run an off-road marathon with these things. I bet the Greek soldier Pheidippides wishes he had a pair of these in 490 B.C. when he basically ran almost 25 miles which gave our modern day Marathon it’s name!

    These partially waterproof mens hiking boots / shoes feature a leather mesh and webbing. Techlite lightweight mid sole for long-lasting comfort superior cushioning and high energy return.

    Columbia Crestwood Mid Waterproof Men’s Hiking Boot

    Columbia Men Hiking Boots - Crestwood

    I want to call this a hiking boot but at the same time kind of want to call it a men’s hiking shoe. It’s somewhere in between. Kind of like a pair of Air Jordan high tops.

    4 Great Pairs Of Mens Waterproof Hiking Boots / Shoes

Rounded toe, snip toe, roper, or a square toe cowboy boot, Pinto Ranch has them all.

    I’m also gonna do something I normally do and list the price of the boot with each pair. I want complete transparency.

When it came down to it, I ended up choosing one of the cheaper pairs just because I like the look of it the best. It has some sort of antique or vintage look that I just love.

  • Square Toe Cowboy Boots!

    Alright everybody, it’s time we talk about square toe cowboy boots! Over the past year I’ve been wearing square toe cowboy boots much more frequently than any other time in my cowboy boot wearing life. So before a year ago, I probably wouldn’t go out and buy a pair of square toed boots.

    The Truth About Square Toe Cowboy Boots – Visit Jeremiah Craig’s site

    I guess I would have to say that I am more of a medium round traditional boot kind of guy or a good pair of Ropers! There are a lot of cowboy boot toe types to choose from, but when it comes down to it, it’s mostly personal taste that should win out on what toe type you choose.  I really like that rounded medium look, so the square toe just never really appealed to me but since companies have been sending me boots and I’m starting to understand why they are made the way they are, I have a new appreciation for square toe cowboy boots and I’m gonna get into why.

    Nothing but impressed from start to finish with this transaction, the order process was easy, the shipping was fast and the boots were even more stunning in person. The stitching, design and finish are all first class with no detail left out! It is very rare in this day and age you find a business that still values the customers and not just profits. There were several personal touches such as a handwritten card that just reinforce the point I will do business there again!

    Ugly Is In The Eye Of The Boot Wearer

    So some of you might say “but Jeremiah, their ugly” well that always comes down to personal preference. I know Texas, and Oklahoma and some of those surrounding states really like the square toe and along the East Coast and West Coast as well, except for the West coast cities (don’t even talk to L.A. about square toes, they hate it but they hate a lot of things actually so I take everything that they say with a grain of salt.).

    Square Toe Cowboy Boots - Doing work in Some dirty square toed cowboy boots!

    Anyways whether you think the square toe looks good or not I gotta be honest, comfort is the main benefit of a square toe boot. You have this wide toe box here which makes it so you can spread your toes out a little bit. You got a little bit more wiggle room literally and it’s comfortable to be in all day. You don’t have anything on the side squeezing your foot. You know it’s a little bit easier to find a fit that’s good for you. Cowboy boots can be tough to fit. So it’s just a comfortable boot because you have so much space in that toe box. Now you might be thinking, but Jeremiah the only reason why their so popular is because the cowboy boot company’s market square toe cowboy boots more frequently than any other to style.

    Square Toe For The Fit

    Now as of right now, I have seen more square toe cowboy boot ads, not including the Tacoma ads around online and when it comes down to it makes sense that a cowboy boot company would want to market square toe cowboy boots more frequently because it’s just easier to find a good fitting boot because this toe box is so wide the average person can slip their foot into a square toe cowboy boot and most likely find a better fit right off the bat then what they would with a medium round toe or snip toe. The problem is that a lot of times you can go about a half a size smaller than what you would wear in that traditional cowboy boot. So because this toe box is so wide that makes the taper much less. See as you can see here there is much less room in this toe box then there is in this toe box. That makes it possible for a person to come down a half a size. The problem is when you go a half size down that could put the arch position for your foot in the wrong spot so it all depends on the insole that is in the boot. You just wanna make sure that you have that support in the arch area because that could lead to some pretty significant problems down the road. But it makes sense that a cowboy boot company would want to market a square toe cowboy boot more than another toe style just because it fits the average population better and they don’t lose a lot of money making toe styles that don’t feel good for the average population.

    If you’ve tried your hand at hog hunting before and didn’t have much luck, well guess what, now you’re in luck lol! Feral hogs have been a major pain in the you know what for Texans and many other Americans since their unwelcomed introduction! I can literally only 3 things these pigs are good for. Their meat, the pleasure it gives me to hunt them, and these amazing feral hog handcrafted cowboy boots lol.

    You want want to wear something that is a conversation piece? LOL, look no farther.  I mean really, what could be better then sitting in a bar and someone casually looking down and asking you what your boots are made from! Seriously, that is gonna be at least a 10 minute discussion and you might even get a free beer out of it.

    Great Looks And Comfort Is What It’s All About

    A lot of Cowboys are also doing their ranch work on those gator all terrain vehicles, on quads, on tractors, so you could imagine that a cowboy or a ranch worker would just want to be comfortable while their working. They don’t want their toes all squeezed up in that toe box all day for no reason. It makes a good work book is basically what I’m saying. I’ve been using this as a work boot just to do construction here and their. Little odd jobs and I gotta say, it’s a great boot to work in just because it is so comfortable.

    It feels like a cowboy boot fit, which I really like because you’re able to keep your feet cool because of the heel slip, there’s a lot of air that can pass through a cowboy boot while you’re working so that leads to less sweat and that leads to less stink and an overall cool comfort feeling that just feels better while your working. I’ve definitely been won over by the square toe and I think you will too.

    Are they my favorite toe style? No, not really,  but I do respect them in the lineup of toe styles out there. If you like the square toe, rock it. If you like the traditional medium round toe, rock it. If you like the snip toe, rock it. The most important thing about wearing western boots is that you are wearing cowboy boots. I don’t care what toe style you have, nor should anybody else. Let’s just enjoy cowboy boots together.
